Sister lives up there. My bro-in-law took my car out for first time. I didn't see him for 25mins. He came back with big smile and spent the rest of the day trying to convince my sister they need an e60.

Superb! Mind you, with a 545 it's hardly any wonder! My 530i will do for me. If i want speed, I have one of these:-

nice bike... not a bike man myself, but appreciate the thrill.
i am just enjoying the v8 for the moment. to be honest, i hardly drive anyway. commute via train, always decorating at weekends!!! wife drives it everyday. what a waste.

[snapback]105006[/snapback]
530i SE. 142s. Sport suspension. Business Nav. BT. Xenons. Sports Wheel. Silver. Grey Leather. Poplar(?) trim. From Blue Bell in Wilmslow

To be honest i'm more interested in the Exige you've got as an Avatar. I've had a couple of Elises in my time

Ahh the "stealth bomber" as my wife calls it.. it is a 2001 Lotus Exige vhpd 190, (Rover engine),. Black met paint, black powder OZ splits,black windows, carbon fibre wing + lips, cat bypass, black tints, quad throttle bodies. 205bhp rrt. .. Alas imminently to be converted along with a Honda CRV into a Merc Coupe for my wife...

But i will be looking for something else to fill the gap in the garage, considering a Vauxhall VX220 turbo.. any views ?

I have bought my last 6 cars frm Benham in Stockport.. i tried bluebell once but got a less than helpful reception from them.. how do you find them ?
